Sunday Update

The weekend is almost over - and it's been busy.
We went to see my favorite college student yesterday to attend the Convocation Ceremony at Millersville University.  What a lovely ceremony.  Also, such a thrill to hear my son recognized.  We went to lunch nearby.  And left for home in the early afternoon.
On our way home we stopped at my not-so-local LNS.  They had called earlier in the week to tell me that they had framing ready for pick up.  I picked up these pieces yesterday.

This is Quaker Faith, Hope, Love by Midnight Stitching.  I stitched this in 2009.

This is Live, Laugh, Love by Hinzeit.  Also stitched in 2009.

I dropped this off to be framed.  Garland Fair by Blackbird Designs, I believe it was Loose Feathers 16.  I finished stitching this on Wednesday.  I'm not sure what the fabric is as it was a gift.

And, as long as I was there, a little stash enhancement.  They had this finished as a small pillow and it is so cute. It even comes with it's own baby mug.  There are no babies in our immediate future, but I thought this would be a great Easter piece.

A quick stop by Cabela's on the way home for Jack.  While he was in there I worked on Ravens & Pumpkins & Cats, Oh My! by Carriage House.  Actually, I stitched on this for most of the car ride.  I ran out of WDW Sweet Potato, and so it was good we stopped by my not-so-local LNS so I could continue.  Obviously, this was a WIP before yesterday.  I save this for car rides since it's pretty much background fill in and doesn't require chart reading.

I have joined the Totally Useless Stitch A Long and will be using this jar as my container.  It's one I've had in my collection for quite some time.  Over the years it has been used for flower arrangements and orts.  So it's back to being my ort container.  It's posing here on the table in my stitching room. Later tonight I will add the orts from Garland Fair and from Ravens & Pumpkin & Cats, Oh My!


Dinner is smelling wonderful, and I need to go put the finishing touches on that.

Happy Stitching!

I'm Back

A year or so ago, I decided to shut down my blog so I could focus on other things. The blogging bug has bit me again and here I am. I have seen so many great new layouts - they've come a long way in short amount of time.

I'm currently stitching Garland Fair by Blackbird Designs. I'm about finished and hope to finish this week.

I have many WIP's - too many to list here, but I will show you them as I go along.
